Trapped - A Yogscast Fan Fiction

Chapter 24

Emily's POV ~

"Are you sure that's a good idea Em?" Lewis said to me and I shrugged before giving his question a response.

"As long as I don't have to do any up close combat, yeah!" I giggled before pulling out my bow and turning towards the name tag. I spared a quick glance over my shoulder and see Alexis, Lewis, Simon, and Eve pulling out their weapon while Jacob just raised his eyebrows.

"Are we even going to be able to catch him?" I heard Jacob say from behind me, but I ran ahead anyways as I shouted out a response.

"YOLO," I screeched sarcastically turning my attention towards the name tag again. I couldn't see it already moving, but I had no intentions of giving up. Nocking my bow I sprint up the stairs and quickly clear them just as the man is clambering out of the half finished tower. "Come and fight me you coward!" I shouted, letting an arrow fly. It hit his leg and I heard him let out a loud hiss before pulling it out and jumping out. I heard the others quickly clambering up the stairs and without waiting for them I took off, muttering curses under my breath. "Hurry up guys! He's getting away!" I shouted as I followed him down the mountain.

"How about no! We are going as fast as we can you arsehole!" I heard Simon yell back and I giggled spite the situation.

"Oh stop whining!" I laughed, running out onto ice after the man. I struggled to find my balance for a bit, but what I lacked in grace on land I made up for with my ability to not slip on ice. I smirked and slid after him, firing arrows every few seconds.

"Flipping 'ell!" I heard Lewis shout, followed by a loud thud and I couldn't stop myself from laughing when a string of curses followed from Simon. The ice only went on for a little while, but the man was already moving out of my sight.

"No!" I shouted when I reached the edge of the ice and couldn't located the pale man. I let out a curse and ran a hand through my hair with a sigh. Looking back at the others I saw that I had a few minutes to kill. I let out a deep breath and plopped down on the ground in front of a tree, deciding to braid my hair to keep it out of my face.

Eve's POV ~

When I saw the ice I couldn't help, but let out a groan. I had been a few feet behind the others the entire run and this was just going to make me further behind. I heard the wind slowly picking up and I let out a shiver. I really wish I had a jacket of some sort. It sucked having to wear a tank top, shorts, flip-flops, and sunglasses while the others, with the exception of Simon, all had warm clothes! It was totally unfair! I didn't know I was going to get stuck in this stupid cold place! It was SUPPOSED to be summer! I grumbled out some complaints as I slid out onto the ice, my arms raising for balance as my face scrunched up with concentration. I had even made it a few steps before toppling over onto my behind. I let out a yelp of pain and struggled to get to my feet again. "You alright there Eve?" I heard Alexis' mocking tone call out.

"Shut up!" I snapped back, steadying myself again. I slid a few more steps out, smirking when i didn't fall. I quickly reached the others whowere all stood around Simon, trying to help him up after a nasty fall into a hole in the ice."Are you alright Simon?" I say, struggling not to laugh. 

"Yeah, I'm 'effing dandy," He said sarcastically, finally getting to his feet with a smile. I smiled back and set off toward the other side with the others.

Emily's POV ~

When the others finally made their way across the ice i got up with sigh and faked a smile to hide my disappointment. If there's one thing i've learned it's to mask all negative feelings. I turned away from them and pointed at a path that led through a patch of trees. "We have to go that way!" I said with fake cheeriness.

"Okay!" I heard Eve say along with mumbled agreements from the others. Taking that as my cue I started down the dark path. I heard the others cheerily talking behind me and I chimed in every once in a while, but I still hadn't fully gotten better from the disappointment from a few minutes prior. At least until I heard Simon's voice rise above the other's.

"Is that a... Man?"
